Meaning Of The Word Hebron:

Hebrew comes from “HABAR” which means association, company, a joint connection, colleague, friend or alliance. Place of Refuge, Place of Alliance, to be united, to be joined, Ex 26 v10 joined as curtain loops, symbolic for place of prayer

Hebron is found about forty times in the Old Testament. It was the favourite home of Abraham, he pitched his tent under the oaks of Mamre, by which name it came afterwards to be known; and Sarah his wife died there, and was buried in the cave of Machpelah (Genesis 23:17-20), which he bought from Ephron the Hittite. From this place the patriarch departed for Egypt by way of Beersheba (37:14; 46:1)

Hebron was taken by Joshua and given to Caleb (Joshua 10:36 Joshua 10:37; 12:10; 14:13). It became a Levitical city and a city of refuge (20:7; 21:11). When David became king of Judah Hebron was his royal residence, and he resided in Hebron by the instruction of the Lord for seven and a half years (2 Samuel 5:5); and here he was anointed as king over all Israel (2 Samuel 2:1-4; 2 Samuel 2:11; 1 Kings 2:11) .

One thing have I desired of the Lord, that I will I seek after; that I will dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to enquire in his temple. Psalms 27:4
